Переглядів 11019 годин тому
About 10 years ago, I fell in love with New York - the city that never sleeps. When I went there for the first time, I had a Canon EOS 5D Mark II. Since then, I've gone through various mirror and mirrorless cameras, different brands and resolutions, 4K and 8K, stabilized and non-stabilized sensors, and so on. When I finally returned to New York, that shiny machine, I took with me the Leica M11 ...

    I was planning to order this lens but the price has gone up quite a bit since before. Went with the TTArtisan 56mmf1.8 in the end. I believe these 2 lenses perform pretty much the same.

    I think if you’re shooting video pretty much at all, the X-S20 is easily the better choice. I will say I enjoy the 7 custom save options on my X-E4(vs the X-S20’s only 4, but the X-S20 also has the newer more film sims)!🙏

    To be honest, OM-1 and OM-5 at this moment, is more then we need in mirrorless world. It outperforms Sony 7iv. Noise in Om-1 can be totally (almost) be removed in camera taking hi rs shots or few same shots and marge them in body only as an overlay process. If you like DSLR, go for Pentax FF or APSC, those are awesome. If you want MFT, go for m4/3 system.

    • @JacekSopotnicki
      @JacekSopotnicki Місяць тому

      Om system and Sony system are quite different, but yes you are right that in many respects OM-1 and OM-5 outperform Sony A7IV. It's an amazing camera

  • @davidmurray5926
    @davidmurray5926 Місяць тому

    Hi, first of all this is an excellent review, thank you. However I do want to take issue with you regarding just one thing at 02:03 you say that the next version should have the full side hinged flip out screen so that we can film or photograph ourselves. Seriously! This is one of the reasons we are now inundated with these damn screens, because UA-camrs moan about not being able to do selfies. The screen you say it should have is slow, conspicuous and obtrusive, the tilt screen we have here is already perfect. I mean seriously who would spend £7k on a camera to do selfies and to film yourself. Please just stop asking for this damn screen, enough is enough. Thank you.

    • @AdventuresinNature
      @AdventuresinNature Місяць тому

      I agree! Love my Fuji GFX 100 ii. For taking photos, this screen is definitely superior to the tilty flippy screens. For filming yourself, one can use a monitor and a tripod, which is far more practical anyways since absolutely no one will seriously vlog with this camera. I use the Ninja V+ and it works fantastic.

    • @LaurenceJanus
      @LaurenceJanus Місяць тому

      Flip out screens make it difficult to adjust the lens while panning using the tripod handle. Tilt FTW

    • @JacekSopotnicki
      @JacekSopotnicki Місяць тому

      I do agree with you. For professional work I prefer this type of screen or the one that you find in Sony A7III. For nowadays standards though I think panasonic's screen solution is the best - you can use it according to your preference.

      Even at full price, this lens is worth it for the R7. The IBIS works very well, almost always gets the image. Only weakness is if you are panning or walking shooting video, then the corners will show noticeable wobble. For photos it's nearly perfect.
